hello! you know I have read in the bible and also qu'ran, but from hindu religion only the baghavad ghita, and I wanted to know: what's your prediction of the future? I'm just curious what your point of view is. I know the apocalypse of the bible and am wondering what do you have? Christians: THIS QUESTION IS NOT INTENDED FOR YOU AND ABSOLUTELY NOBODY ASKS YOU FOR YOUR OPINION SO WOULD YOU HAVE THE KINDNESS TO KEEP OUT OF THIS QUESTION. HAVE YOU UNDERSTOOD THAT? i HOPE SO. I EVEN FEEL LIKE REPORTING EVERY SINGLE CHRISTIAN THAT COMES TO PREACH HERE.

Hindus believe (I am not a practicing Hindu) that we are in the Kali Yugam. It started after the war described in the Mahabharata in which good triumphs over evil but there was also a lot of bad done by either side. The Kali Yugam is where evil slowly triumphs over the good till God (the 10th avatar of Vishnu) will come down and destroy the world. This is the jist but it is more complicated than that.

There are many Hindus in this site, I am one from India. OK, now, Hindus believe that the world is created and destroyed and then created again. The creative force of God, symbolized as Brahma creates the universe, Vishnu sustains and secures the universe and Shiva destroys it. There are four cycles, Satya Yuga-All truth, no evil or darkness, Treta Yuga- Mostly truth, some dark, Dwapar Yuga - Half truth, Half dark, Kali Yuga(The current age)- Mostly Dark, Some Truth. It is believed that Vishnu, to secure the world would appear as a human being called Kalki. He would purify the world of all evil and then the world would be destroyed and created again. Satya Yuga will start and the cycle would repeat itself. The destruction will not be felt by the inhabitents of the earth. They will be created as they were at the end of Kali Yuga. Only evil would disappear(a bit like the 'rebooting' thing in the Matrix Revolutions). The destroyer will be Shiva, a tremendous force of destruction. Actually the Vedas do try to avoid too many questions about creation and destruction. One verse says 'Maybe even God is not sure how He was created'. Buddha(born as a Hindu) avoided these questions completely.

Each cycle of creation is like a breath of Brahma, his each inhalation is a cycle of creation and each exhalation is a cycle of dissolution, but then he doesn’t rests he breathes again after a while, and the passage between two breaths is called the night of Brahma. All this while He remains unchanged as he is beyond time and space. He creates this universe out of himself yet remains separate from it.
This Macrocosm can also be understood beautifully through a simple microcosmic allegory, the wave is created in the ocean, yet the ocean remains separate and eternal.
The point is what do you want to think of yourself as, the wave or the ocean, for on that depends your sense of well being and self confidence. As thinking yourself as later takes you to a level of oneness and ensures dissolution of ego.
Like in the Lord of The Rings, the ego can only be destroyed when it merges back with its source, the Creator, or the cauldron of fire eternal. Only when you surrender your ego to the purifying fires of the Shiva can you regain your true powers as that of a Co-creator.
Death is the only reality of all life as well of Creation. So there is nothing to predict here, only some common sense and basic science.
Science suggests that the beginning of the creation was marked by a big bang, so do Hindus; they say it all started with Brahma Naad, the sound of God, even Christians agree here.
Thanks to the pioneering works of physicists like Stephen Hawking this now a common knowledge, who once suggested:
“There was never a start and would be no end, but just change -- a constant transition of one "universe" giving way to another through glitches in space-time.”
